Re: Old ic¡¯s


 

74[L]S387 did ring an ancient bell.

I could find a reference here on page 5-13:

"U65 will normally be a *74S287* or *74S387*. These are fusible link programmable read only memories. They have eight inputs, two disables, and four outputs. Each output can be programmed (permanently) to produce any function of eight input variables, controlled on an on-or-off basis by two more variables, the disables."

However, DEC sees the *74LS387* as tri-state buffers, on page 147:

and Mostek too, non-tristate, page 4-17:


Curiouser and curiouser...
I'd have to dig deep in the old boxes for the TTL databooks.

Are you certain about the 74LS387 part number? I can't even find a data
sheet for that.

the MC10231 and MC10102 are both ECL parts and seem to be
available (-ish) on the auction site. I can easily find data sheets for
them, even listings on Mouser (that say they are obsolete and not
available).

The only reference I can find for the 74x387 is on Wikipedia,
which says it is a 1024-bit (256x4) PROM. It does not indicate that there
was an LS version, only an S version. Do you have the PROM contents for
the chip you are replacing, or a way to program the blank PROM if you had
one?
